Laptoptards Are About To Ruin Your Starbucks

cafe-laptop-family-guy.jpgLike every growing hipster, I'm painfully transitioning from my local indie grubby cafe to Starbucks, because dammit I just want a clean table and no one asking me for money and maybe an egg nog latte in December. I also want a cafe without a mob of laptop zombies typing with headphones on, creating a completely silent cafe and making me feel like I must whisper my order. So I'm not happy that in its upcoming switch from T-Mobile to AT&T, Starbucks is dropping the price of wifi from $10 a day to one $5 payment for the rest of your life.

Just buy the minimum prepaid Starbucks Card, and you get two hours a day. Not just that day, but every day you have that card, until AT&T gets greedy again.
